16. 016 Who's out of the dowry
The dowry should be returned, and the silver should be returned.
But when the three families of Yun Lao were separated, they didn't get anything, except for a few acres of thin fields with poor harvests, and only these few dilapidated houses.
It took a few years to save eight taels of silver, and at the beginning of the year I bought a ploughing cow for seven taels.
Originally, I thought that the small life would get better and better, and there would be a lot of grain left every year after growing food.
But who would have thought that this year would encounter a once-in-a-century drought, although it was not that there was no harvest, and the remaining grain was barely forced to pay taxes, and the grain was still a lot behind.
If there is no surplus of food from previous years, this day will not be able to go on.
Now that the family is really poor, where can I get all this silver?
He Shi also twitched angrily, "His father, the silver was received by his mother-in-law back then, and you should ask your mother-in-law to return the silver to them now." ”
"In-laws, don't listen to him, he doesn't mean that."
As soon as Xiucai's mother heard this, she slapped her son on the back, and almost took off her shoes and shaved Xiucai's big ears.
She knew in her heart that her son was in a hurry, and said that the dowry was not intended to ask Yun Laosan's family to return the dowry, but she understood that others might not understand.
As soon as the words came out, he couldn't take them back, and if he and Meiniang's affairs were not good, there was really no room for turning back.
Turning his head and smiling at He's face, seeing that He's face sank like water, he hurriedly explained: "In-laws, Shui Sheng doesn't mean that, he is in a hurry, what kind of dowry is not a dowry, the family doesn't talk about the two families, don't take it to heart." ”
He sneered: "Xiucai Niang, you still don't call your in-laws, I listened to the diaphragm, since Xiucai mentioned the dowry, since it was my family who proposed to withdraw from the family, the dowry should be returned, you wait a while, I will let the head of the family go to the mother-in-law to ask for it." ”
After speaking, she sent Yun Laosan out of the house, and she simply followed Yun Meiniang into the house, closing the door and waiting for Yun Laosan to come back with the silver.
She knew that it was more difficult to ask for silver from the old lady than to ascend to the sky, anyway, the matter was made by the second uncle's Xiniang and Xiucai, since Xiucai mentioned the matter of silver, the second uncle's family should also contribute.
In other words, my family has no money, if Xi Niang wants to marry Xiucai smoothly, the second uncle's family will spend money and return the dowry of Mei Niang back then.
He thought that this kind of thing would happen, it would be impossible for Xi Niang to marry someone else in her life if she didn't marry Xiucai, and the second uncle's family must be in a hurry, and they should be willing to let them take out these silvers.
Besides, Xiucai and Meiniang quit their relatives, turned their heads and hired Xi Niang, this silver still returned to the second uncle's house as soon as it fell over, if the second uncle's family woke up and thought about his daughter, the silver would definitely come out.
As a result, Yun Laosan came back dejected after not long ago.
Behind him was his wife Chen, who stood tall with horizontal eyebrows, and Yun Xiniang, who had a sour face.
Further back, thin and thin, as if the wind was blowing down, it was Yun Xiniang's younger brother, Yun Qiu.
When she was scolded by everyone poking her backbone, Yun Xiniang was embarrassed to go out, coupled with the joy on her face, the thickness of her face greatly surprised Yun Meiniang.
And the purpose of this family of three is to break through people's glasses.
"Why do you want our family to marry and return the dowry to others?"
As soon as Chen entered the courtyard, he shouted loudly, completely ignoring the people who were watching the excitement outside.
He was also angry and came out of the house, "The dowry was in the hands of my mother-in-law back then, and now I want to retire my mother-in-law to naturally take out the dowry, which one said that you want your family to come out?" ”
